Im glad so many people are enjoying this explore, please continue to remind me, and the other viewers of your early fast food memories, and what do you miss about these stores ? As always, thank you for the love on the videos, until the next one ! ✌️

This looks like a 1980's building design that was partially updated in the early 2000's when they had first switched to the round logo.

I love this channel for the simple fact that this dude is an "old soul". I admire his affinity and appreciation for things that are very "dated" by today's standards, but were completely in vogue when I was younger. His eye for design and architectural style are for things before his time, i was fortunate enough to have been born in '72, so i have very vivid memories of items he picks up on. I dig his admiration of all things nostalgic, so many objects and symbols he picks up on at his exploration sites amaze me, cuz I'll see something come into frame and I make a comment in my head and the next thing is him practically making the same statement on camera. LOL. It makes me smile to not only reminisce by seeing these videos, but hearing the enjoyment and excitement in his voice when he noticese a piece of furniture, an appliance, or a part of a building in one of the properties he's presenting. The production value of these videod are by far better quality than most other explorer videos, IMHO, that is. I look forward to ur next presentation, i always wonder what will catch ur eye next. 😀👍

I don't understand why people have to destroy and tag everything that has survived for so long. Still amazing to see. Thanks for the adventure.

I worked at burger king in 1986, and the paneling on the outside, the floors on the inside, the sunroom...!. All of those are nostalgic to me! Thanks for posting this video!

As a former fast food worker for 10 years (not Burger King) and a wannabe urbexer, i LOVE this! Id say that first office looking space before the managers office was a crewroom, where crew took their breaks.

That last commercial was from around the mid 70's. I had the same hat and uniform when I worked for BK and customers always asked me to sing the jingle. My lyrics were "Hold the pickles, hold the onions, find a seat and rest your bunions" . Customers always got a kick out of that.

I know this is a weird thought, but I always think about the tons of people who used to go to these abandoned restaurants and stores who are no longer with us.

I worked for a pressure washing company in 2004 who's main job was cleaning the exhaust equipment in restaurant kitchens. McDonalds was one of our largest customers. We went to one once that was in a building that had to have been built in the 1970's. It still had the brown terracotta tile floors even though the rest of the building had been updated in what was most likely the 90's. The thing that was most striking about the structure was that it had a basement. Out of the dozens of locations we cleaned it was the only one I ever saw with a basement.

Love that place. Those old fast food abandoned restaurants someday used to be full of life, and joy, specially for the young ones. Now it is hard to see the decay but still brings some good memories back😊

I worked in Burger King when I was a teen in the UK and I must say I'm surprised the milkshake machine was left behind. It was an expensive piece of hardware and required a lot of upkeep. I'm surprised they left it behind.

Met my 1st wife in a burger king back in the 90's looked just like this one. Enjoy your youth, this place was really left to fall apart, such a shame.

That bathroom was actually cleaner than some BK's currently open. Two of these places closed this year near me, they have really fallen off in the last decade.

I worked at BK in high school back in 94/95 and our store was almost exactly the same footprint. The glass seating area was the "hang out" spot for a lot of us back in the day. We'd all meet there, and take off for the mall after.

There is something atmospheric and bittersweet about the way you filmed this and selected the music. Like you could hear the many voices of people from the past who frequented and worked there., now just distant memories lost to time. This is such a great video.

"Women's room, Men's room, not that it matters anymore" LMAO! That had me cracking up! Awesome video dude, I miss being back home near Cleveland, so many abandoned places to explore there back in the 90's when I was a kid

I got a kick out of this explore! The jingle at the beginning was from the late 60's early 70"s. I was asking my husband , just a couple weeks if he remember it, I sang it to him! He'd never heard it. Back when BK first came to be they used to grill your burgers over an open flame, and oh how good the air around BKs smelled, made you very hungry! The chicken products are fairly new, they didn't offer them, back in the day. In the late 70s or thereabouts they came out with chicken fingers and they were awesome, fresh chicken, fried just right! Not at all like what they call chicken today. Boy did you get me off on a tangent here, lol. Bet you never thought you'd thrill someone so, did you,? 😂 Thank you for the walk down memory lane! Sadly the Burger Kings days are numbered. We've lost almost all of them around here and the surviving ones are pretty empty of customers. Great time capsule! Thank you!

I’m not even all the way through this video yet but this is beautiful, it has a Last of Us vibe about it that can’t be duplicated; and we all had that one fast food chain that our families would go to, for me it was McDonald’s because small town. ❤

0:57 As soon as the nostalgic music came on and the abandoned sign and building were shown, I shed a tear... God, times flies so fast... I miss my childhood so much... Everything was so much fun as a kid... Especially in the 80's and 90's... Also, keep in mind that each chair seen in this video, thousands of people sat on them to eat their food. Now, it's been dead silence since 2010... It's so weird to think about...

Aww the teal seats and decor. The sunroof! The wood paneling! I could never forget it.

It made me happy to hear all the birds singing outside and to see the deer running behind the old building. Nature reclaiming what is rightfully theirs.

I think it great that you younger generation are taking an interest in such things. I felt this kind of attitude towards older things was being lost and not cared about anymore.

Could you imagine walking into a Burger King today and having a stunning model sing to you?

I really loved those old TV commercials that you put in at the beginning and end of this video. Those were very reminiscent and made me want to keep watching. Very nice touch. Keep up the good work.

I haven’t been to a Burger King since probably the late 1970s and it looked like the franchise depicted in the old TV ad at the beginning of this video. I recall you’d walk up to the order taker on the left where burger patties were placed onto a mesh conveyor belt leading into a large stainless broiler. The patties came out a few minutes later on the right where your sandwich was assembled. As long as the restaurant was busy, there would already be burgers in the conveyor so you didn’t have to wait long. There was no drive through and there was no dine-in seating. It was strictly park and walk in to get your food which you presumably took home. Some people opted to eat in their cars, but theoretically weren’t supposed to because on premise dining was taxable snd BK didn’t charge sales tax. Thsnks for the blast from the recent past - nicely documented.

The code written on the front of the safe is pretty industry standard when a business closes or when a safe is being taken out of service, it is meant to prevent the need to drill it out later if something was forgotten inside. Doesn't always happen but from what I'm seeing from experience that seems to be the standard across the board :)

It's kind of crazy that this BK ended up sitting like this. Usually the property goes up for lease/sale and another business either sets up in the old building or it's torn down and new building is put up. These are usually in high traffic areas which make the real estate very desirable for retail businesses. On an interesting side note, Somebody that I used to work for actually got the job to tear down a McDonalds of this era. The company didn't take any of their logo stuff though. The drive-thru signs, menus, trash cans, tables, chairs, napkin dispensers, high chairs, even the Ronald McDonald statue, he took them all. He even has the doors with the recessed stainless steel handles that most people remember from the 90's. He did sell some of it though, for a while there was a house with Ronald McDonald standing in the front yard.

One of the worst thing about us as a society is, there is always someone with half a brain that can’t help but tag or graphite abandoned places… Like, can’t we just go in, have a look at the past and leave! Great video mate! I love looking at things from back in the day 😊

Build in late 80s update in mid 90 than face lift update in ealry 2000 that bring back memories i miss sunroom

I never thought I would get sad over an abandoned fast food restaurant but I did 😢 nice video man and thanks for posting!

This was bitter sweet watching this. I remember when fast food joints weren't so corporate as you mentioned. As a kid in the 80s through the 90s, I miss all the styles, looks, etc. If you ever come across an old Wienerschnitzel, with the Pop Art Decor, please show it here! Anyways, Thanks for this! Take Care!

The juxtaposition from that sugary-sweet commercial into that bleak montage of urban decay hit me like a punch in the gut.

The paint on those chairs is pretty good, that one chair outside that's exposed to the elements only had a little bit of visible rust here and there 😅 great video btw! Also, I would like a Whopper with extra pickles and mustard please.

Man how sad how it was just forgotten. Wonder how many whoppers were served and how many kids meals made kids happy 😊 Thanks for sharing. God Bless ❤

UPDATE: I went back to the abandoned burger king with chris to get rid of some racist graffiti and clean up the chairs and tables, and made this place look brand new again! To see the video of the burger king clean up click this link! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o8-WiNplncrZcok.htmlsi=GmFtEUpGHRQjpB3i

Definitely mostly circa the 1980’s. My Burger King growing up looked damn near identical in the early 90’s and I remember people saying it looked tired then. Cool find!!

I wish the original companies would do something to preserve these old buildings when they “resurface.” I can guarantee it would bring in tons of customers to restore this to its original 90s style. People like me would travel a good ways to experience this kind of nostalgia. Imagine a restaurant actually doing this!!

There’s a Burger King in my town that has been open almost continuously since around 1960 and is currently undergoing renovation. I say almost continuously because it was shut down for about a year several years ago to repair damage from a hurricane.

Looks like a mid to late 80s coming into a 90s look. Thank you so much for the nostalgia.

It is definately a surreal feeling to visit and explore a place you went to as a kid.

Love the fast food exploration! It’s incredible how overgrown the exterior has become. It’s almost hidden in the woods. Seeing all of the overturned chairs and tables made me want to straighten them!

I am 60 years old I eat there when I was a kid and I took my 2 sons there too thanks for the video and the Memory

Honestly, the design of the building would make me go in and eat. I absolutely love 80's buildings. That is also why I'm thinking of building a home in the near future with a true 1980's look to it. Corporate stuff sucks nowadays. And I'm a 17 year old saying this.

I love this video! it does bring back a lot of good times! Love the teal color too! Thanks, I would love to see more of this type of video!

I love this video! You have such a way blending nature with concrete! In my childhood any fast food was considered a rare treat, usually on the way home from Boston and usually it was McDonald’s. Thanks for the beautiful trip down memory lane…🍔👑❤️

You make every explore interesting because you love what you do and always tell an interesting story. Thanks for documenting these old places before they are gone.

Something you can do to try and identify the age of a building is check the fuse boxes. They might have a tag or inspection sign off from when the electrical was completed. Also, the style of breakers can sometimes help date a building especially older ones from the 80s on back

Absolutely love this. Your videos are so well done. It's so sad when things that brought us so much joy, slowly disappear. They could repurpose so many abandoned places.

I really enjoyed this. It was a time when all fast food restaurants had their own unique look. But most fast food buildings today look so much alike. And I hate it, because I usually can't tell what restaurant it is anymore unless I see the name on the building. It's just a real shame that they took all the individual uniqueness away from all these different fast food chains just to basically make them all look practically alike. I definitely miss the good old days. It was really nice to see this awesome explore.

Just found your channel. I appreciate your gentle vibe and the respectful way you highlight the nostalgia of abandoned places like this one. It’s sad, in a way, that a once viable business can just disintegrate to remnants like you showed here. Good explore. Keep it up! ❤

Places like that been popping up a good dela in my life, and I certainly remember the 1990s fondly. Blessed to have lived through that wonderous decade, and it makes me think about the things older generations have seen; the rise and fall of various buildings, establishments, etc. Good vid.

Some of my favourite videos of yours are the 90s nostalgia explorations - like this one and the mall videos. They really take me back to my childhood.

There was a burger king in my town that was still operational until covid, that still had this exact styling including the teal interior, which it received in 1992, it even still had the play place outside.

Omg! So cool! That commercial definitely brought it back for me. And that father in the commercial looked so familiar to me.

Great explore! I worked at a Burger King it the eighties. There was this monstrous machine that you would feed burgers and buns (burgers in the bottom buns on top) in and a chain link conveyor would pull them over the fire and the cooked burgers and toasted buns would come out the other end. So much for flame broiled. I love seeing the old commercials. McDonalds used to do the same thing with separate commercials by race. It was a weird time.

One of the best urban explorers I've seen! Thanks

Wow that’s a totally retro Burger King shame these building just sit and rot away I am sure at some point someone will buy that property and build something new.

Burger King is my favorite. Always has been, always will be. Edit: the commercials are an awesome touch. Love your channel🕯

The BK in the little town I grew up in was still rocking the 1984 BK look up until about five years ago. I guess the smaller stores kinda get put on hold for updating.

Thanks for all your video sharing,im so addictive to all your videos,i enjoy watching them all the way from South Africa...keep them coming ❤🎉

Man these were the good times.. Thanks for the nostalgia hit, great video.

I loved this video, but than again I always love your videos & my vote is yes to more like this if you see them, it's funny I tried watching some else's 2 days ago in Burger King only bc it was down the street from me in Jersey & I only got thru the location part 😮

That was awesome keep doing what you're doing we will keep liking it😊

The transition in the intro was powerful! Love your work I’m so glad I found your channel!

My local Dairy Queen used to have a sunroom like in this Burger King, it was renovated in 2018 though and now it has the standard boring design of modern fast food places.

I would like to see you do more of these types of explorations, just resturaunts in general

This looks just like the Burger King that was on Fort McClellan in Alabama. Oh so many memories of that place. My stepmom was a Drill Sergeant at the Barracks that were right across the street from there. We would go there all the time. It’s so depressing just how much our childhood gets erased from the world. That being, not only Burger King but Fort McClellan too. You will not ever see a more cleaner community (especially LAWNS) that you would in a Military base. Now they contract it all out or just shut down the base altogether. Breaks the heart but I LOVE how you showcase it. Thanks a lot. Brings back plenty of fond memories

Really love this video. Great video as always. Happy holidays.

That one is exactly the floor design of the one closest to me that I grew up with. Still open now, but originally had a massive fish tank for at least 20 years that ran along the mid restaurant rail seat feature which actually made a huge "L" shaped feature in the middle of the dining room. Greenhouse seating area still exists!

This is gonna be a good one

I love checking out old retro abandoned building and businesses

Awesome video! Definitely a throwback for sure! I was born in the 80’s raised in the 90’s I don’t ever remember Burger King being that color 🤷🏻‍♀️maybe different city/states had different colors? Depending on the ownership? Either way great video 😊

Home of the Whopper! Haha. Great explore! The Hershey shakes are good! 😊😊😊

lol love that the ad at the beginning was from the 70s and the actual restaurant was from the 90s. Us old people see those as two very different eras lol

Great exploration! Thanks. I like how you don't just talk from the beginning to the end. It's a very nice touch.

looks like the old BK on Fort McClellan in Alabama

There’s a local Burger King where I live at and I remember going there when I was very young. It has the same layout structure from the one in your video and it’s crazy to think that it might’ve been there since the 80s and still stands today. Nothing has really changed inside of it really. Obviously just the interior colors but everything else speaks early 90s.

I like the way you dip into people's memories, there was a metal factory near me in my teens, literally walk into the offices and looks like people had just gone out for lunch, coats behind chairs, files open on desks, keys in key boxes, one part will always get me is the machine room which went down two floors underground, it was flooded with water and diesel oil and had to climb over obstacles to get into main area, when u used to fill the car with diesel that smell would bring back memories like it was yesterday. Good work

Cool old Burger King

Hello from Vermont!

Sadly many Burger Kings closing down across the nation many here in the Midwest. Spent many happy hours in the Burger King when I was a kid back in the 60's.

What a cool find. It does bring back memories of better times. Thanks for the tour and stay safe :o)

When that advertisement (the first one you showed) came out on TV back in the day I was teenager back then and I had a powerful crush on that young lady that was singing. I was impressed by your camera skills and quality, you just earned a sub.

Great deep motion shots as always. That angled wood upper trim and rooflines are super early 80’s for the building. My guess is original building got a few revamps on interior them whatever happened in that area happened

Please do more retro exploration

Anyone remember the oak trees growing outta the roof of them...? At least in Sarasota, Florida, and I think the rest of Florida... I think they were gone by the nineties, but I clearly remember the trees in the dining rooms... Thanks for sharing. Keep up your awesomeness....

Crazy nostalgia. Also strong Zombieland vibes😮

Burger King does actually still give out crowns if asked for. I specifically remember getting a promotional crown for the Across the Spiderverse movie when it was just coming to theaters, so hope isn’t lost there. Great video, nonetheless. It’s very sad to think of a place that must have had so many customers over the years get shut down and abandoned like this.

Been following your channel for quite some time now. Just wanted to drop this here and thank you for showing me a trip back to my childhood era of the 90s. I remember occasionally going to Burger King as a child. They definitely looked like this one! Kids these days will never know the glories. I feel like you and I are about the same age

Love it. Brings back nice memories. Thank you.

This is 90’s style. This location possibly tanked around 2007 during the Great Recession. This was possibly a Janco owned and operated location because Janco was having financial difficulties since the mid 2000’s.

The best channel on KZfaq. Its like a natural therapy seeing your videos❤❤

What is your background? Art / History? You have an appreciation!

Definitely nostalgic. I enjoyed it so much I enjoys the tour. Miss the old 90s style. Still sad that one closed down. Just imagine it being 2 minutes walk from home. Just to grab a whopper

Brings me back for sure ! Looks like late 70's early 80's, pretty cool.

Damn. What happened that made that area so deserted?

That’s definitely a 80s Burger King. Late 80s pastel colors. Reminds me the 80s and 90s were better times.

seeing that sunroom brought back memmories, our burger king and wendys used to have those until they remodeled and closed them in

Great video. Love those old fast food buildings. I remember those old big window wall areas.

I’m not going to lie.. I tear up a little bit looking at these old structures in these videos.I was born in 84 and grew up in the 90s..Real good times..
